After winning two straight, the Worcester Red Sox who are on the road this week in Buffalo, lost Wednesday night 2-7 against the Bison.

Top of the second Christin Stewart scored to get Worcester into the game 1-2 Bison lead. A sac fly at the bottom of the fourth by Otto Lopez helped drive in Stevie Berman and put the Bison on top 1-3.
